Recently on OTB, Scott Van Pelt and ESPN were duped by Howard Stern's Captain Janks pretending to Eagles running back Brian Westbrook.
Well, MSNBC was duped by a prank call last week as well. MSNBC's Willie Geist thought that he had an interview with United States Goaltender and Buffalo Sabre, Ryan Miller for their Olympic Update Show.
Geist got a relatively interesting interview from the imposter which included a guaranteed victory over Canada in the gold medal game.
After the show, the call was revealed to be a prank and Geist got an interview with the real Ryan Miller who enjoyed the prank but wanted to note that he would not guarantee victory.
My dear, sweet Meleah gave this award to me. I'm supposed to write 10 things I haven't written in this blog ever before. Wow. I tend to be quite open, but I will give this a whirl.
1. I love my daughters dearly and unconditionally. However. If I knew THEN what I know now, I'm not sure I would have ever had children. Because of problems we had with the girls, I no longer have a relationship with my family. K and I came very close to divorcing because of problems with the girls. I had severe bouts of depression because of the girls. You get my drift.
2. At different times in my life, I had a very colorful fantasy life. It was like 'fan fiction,' only it played in my head and not on paper.
3. I practice conversations in my head before I actually have them in real life. Unfortunately, real life NEVER plays out the way I think it will.
4. Anorexics see themselves as fat when they look in a mirror. I, on the other hand, don't necessarily see myself as heavy as I actually am. Now don't get me wrong, I KNOW I am way too fat, but I see myself as I was about 15 years ago and don't 'see' the weight I have gained since. Yes, I was overweight even then, but I just don't see the added baggage. I can actually be surprised when I truthfully look at myself and see what I REALLY look like.
5. I am just over 5 feet tall. I LOVE being short and wouldn't have been upset if I was an inch or more shorter. People seem to be very protective of short women, and I don't mind that one bit.
6. After K and I started dating, while he was out 'cruising' with the Navy, I went out one night with my ex. We talked, made out a little, and he even talked about getting married. Afterwards, I realized what a horrible mistake I had made. Then I was left with explaining all of this to K. The two of them had been closer than brothers way back in the day, and another person from K's hometown knew all about the 'encounter,' so I had to confess before he heard about it from someone else. That mistake almost cost me a wonderful man.
7. I always wished The Mother would have let me skip first grade like the teachers recommended. I often have wondered what my life would be like today.
8. I am quite terrified that I will look like The Mother as I get older. If my hair wasn't colored and it was short and permed, I'm sure I would look like she did at my age. And that scares me.
9. I have gone to the store, bought candy bars--or other junk-type foods--and eaten them in the car before getting home. I did this because I didn't want to share.
10. I've always wanted to sell some of the stuff I make. However, I hate doing the same thing over and over again. I also would never want someone to order something and give me a deadline to produce the product. I could never be an entrepreneur, because I have a very difficult time charging friends for stuff I make--it just doesn't seem right to me somehow.
And there is my list of ten. I'm supposed to tag 6 people to do this, but I will leave it up to each person reading this as to whether they want to or not. I certainly hope someone else does this--I always find other people's lists fascinating.
Blogger Gryphen presents evidence that there may be two Trig Palins. Has Sarah Palin pulled a baby-substitution and, if so, why? Read the story here. I eagerly await the three-baby theory.
One possible reason for the switcheroo is suggested by the disreputable TBR News, which is that Trig died.
At a tragic point, not yet disclosed, little Trig died at the Palin’s home in Wasilla, Alaska (advanced Mongoloids do not live very long lives) and after some consultation with political advisors, who viewed the baby as a political asset, was privately buried in the back yard of the Governor’s home.
This tragedy was increased when the neighbor’s Rottweiler, Guenther, apparently dug up the baby’s remains and when neighbors saw the dog running down the street with its dreadful prize clamped in its jaws, law enforcement and animal control people were called. After a wild chase and the use of tranquilizer darts, the dog was asleep on the sidewalk and the horrified officials were left with the half-eaten remains. These would have normally been turned over to the county medical examiner but the Governor’s rank and political aspirations resulted in a reburial. A bucket of cement was used to fill the hole dug out by Guenther (who later regained consciousness and was turned over to his owners with the instructions to not ever let him out of the house again without a leash.)
The White House has consistently dismissed the issue. Authorities in Hawaii have provided an electronic record of Obama's birth because the paper copy was destroyed in a fire which wiped out much of the state's archives.
Freshy fresh track from Boston's Boy, Sammy Adams, courtesy of FNT. Hopefully everyone made it through the weekend, only 5 more days til he drops "Boston's Boy EP" this FRIDAY!
After days and days of 'beasterly-easterlies' and no surfable swell I decided today that I was going in for a thrash (well you couldn't call it a surf) I knew it was going to be a bit nasty, the swell had finally got in because of a strong S/E wind blowing for the last few days, but the cross-shore wind was N/E. These two factors really mess up the waves and create some challenging conditions. There were some big sets coming through and although I might have made it out the back with my small 'fish' which I can duck-dive, I wasn't prepared to try and take off on the set waves anyway. They looked like this (sorry, not my pics) so I stayed further in and tried to get some medium sized waves, diving under the big ones that had already broken by the time they got to me.
The wind was howling, the waves were dredging sand and both rips were really mean. I managed to get up on a wave only twice, did lots of duck-diving and paddling to get into position, but gave up after about 45 minutes. It was slightly difficult to get in because of the cross-rip near the shore. As I was patiently paddling across it I saw a young girl on a boogie board and advised her to move across - she was very close to being taken out by the rip that sucks out alongside the rocks. I was struggling to maintain my footing on the shifting sandbar by then and I didn't like her chances.
These weren't life threatening conditions - as usual they could be if you got into trouble. With all the hyper-ventilating and negative ions stirred up by the waves it was an exhilerating experience. But you have to know your limits and I am always astounded by the amount of people who don't and who also allow their youngish children to go into the water on days like this. I got out because I sensed that although I was handling it, it wasn't getting any easier to negotiate the conditions. Sure there are people there to help, but the surf patrol had gone home and things happen so quickly. Robin thought he was going to have to rescue a frail elderly German tourist who was very close to losing his footing in the rip.
I have seen things change very quickly, like the day we were surfing at Nanarup point a few years ago and conditions became really dangerous in about 20 minutes. My instincts made me come in and Robin wasn't far behind me. When I got into shore I couldn't believe the insanity - the sea was out of control. There was the most powerful undertow-rip I have ever seen, sucking back from the shore. If you found yourself there without some flotation, it would certainly have dragged you under and out to sea.
This was in the early days of our surf career and Robin wasn't as fit as he is now. He was still trying to get in and found himself in the calmer water alongside the reef, but stuck in a vortex of water in the rip. He was tired and just wasn't making any headway so he put his hand up for assistance - much to my horror! Because I knew I was going to have to go back in. I strapped my legrope back on, grabbed my board and launched it reluctantly.
At the same time a red-headed man who had been swimming but had also got out dived back in without any flotation. I got to Robin first. The water there was calm but the rip wanted to pull us out. I tried paddling with Robin holding onto my board but the current was just too strong. I took one look at the waves out the back and just knew that if we got sucked out we would have had to wait for rescue out there in the worsening conditions. It would have been incredibly difficult to get back in across the breaking waves where we woud have been hammered on the sand by the now quite big waves. So I made an executive decision.
Normally we try and stay away from reef, it hurts when the waves smash you onto it. But there was no choice but to head for it and wait for a wave (they were much much smaller there) to push us up onto the reef. It was close so I paddled in that direction with Robin still in tow. We didn't have to wait long for the next surge with the help of which I hauled Robin by the scruff of his wetsuit onto the limestone. I scrambled on next, scratching my own board and not caring. It was then I thought about the red-headed man. My god, where was he?
I saw him treading water calmly in the vortex and yelled out to see if he wanted any help. He yelled back that he was alright and headed back to shore. He was obviously a very strong swimmer though it did take him a while and he looked pretty whacked by the time he got there.
We crossed the short expanse of calmer water between the reef and the beach. The sand never felt so good.
U.S. men's figure skater Johnny Weir says he was ticked off upon learning that the two French commentators questioned his gender and made other jabs at him during his Olympic skating performances last week.
Can USA do it again? Can they beat Canada, in Canada for a second to earn a gold medal?
We will see tomorrow, but I'll tell you one thing:
Ryan Miller is an absolute beast. The best goalie in hockey hands down.
Better than Luongo and Brodeur combined.
And guess what wins games? championships? and yes, gold medals?
Goalies.
On a side note: That's why the Bruins haven't won in 40 odd something years and that's why USA is winning. We play bad goalies, championship teams don't. Same reason why Canada benched Brodeur, they want to win a gold medal so they'll play the better goalie.
During last night's Sixers-Lakers affair, Lakers star Kobe Bryant fouls Andre Iguodala in the fourth quarter and it appears to be nothing out of the ordinary.
Well, until the replay showed that Kobe Bryant hand went a little lingering when the foul occured.
Recently, Adidas Men's Training put out these viral videos called "Gym Myths" which broke down some of the most common myths that people might believe could impact their workout.
The Chile Earthquake has taken place about a day before Virgo Full Moon. The Virgo Full Moon is perigee (close to earth) and syzgy which identifies this as a SuperMoon. SuperMoons are associated with the work of astrologer Richard Nolle (who interestingly enough, I posted a link to his website on Monday discussing the aspects of this summer.) A few years ago I mentioned Richard and the SuperMoons HERE
I've gone over to his site to see what he had to say about February and I found THIS. I think you will find it interesting.
The Full Moon at 10 degrees of Virgo is in opposition to the Sun (that’s what makes a full moon) at 10 degrees of Pisces. Humanitarian, spiritual, connecting to the bigger picture is Pisces. Virgo is the nitty, gritty, the stuff that is in our hands, the stuff that we are doing right now in front of us. To say it simply, Pisces is the Macro and Virgo is the micro. This full moon will put the pressure on both areas. We are trying to take care of business but at the same time we are asking the big, unanswerable questions.
For those who sometimes wonder if there is a god or a bigger, higher power--- we may be challenged a wee bit more on this full moon because the stuff that makes our daily life could be so overwhelming and so stressful that we keep asking “Why me? Why now? Why am I dealing with this?”. Of course, that’s the Virgo talking because Pisces knows there is no answer to any “Why?” question.
Additionally on this Full Moon, Jupiter is throwing all its weight to the problem or solution. As we know Jupiter is the largest planet and when it meets with The Sun (an annual occurrence) it shoots up the sign with a huge dose of steroids. It has been a dozen years or so since The Sun and Jupiter met up in Pisces so you might want to go back to your diary to figure out what was going on February 1998 and see if you have some stuff come up from that period. Where ever Jupiter goes it has the power to exaggerate and with a Jupiter conjunct Sun in Pisces there can be issues around zealotry, religious extremes, mysticism, humanitarianism along with depression, ennui, and booze and drugs can be pronounced. The Virgo Moon puts the emphasis on how you live your daily life. If you have a good set of routines or habits then the Jupiter energy off over there on the other side of the teeter totter may reward you with a little boon. Not necessarily a lottery win but maybe the comfort of knowing that when the world starts rocking’ you seem to be able to breathe through the bumps and make your way through. At the same time, if you do not have solid routines and daily behaviors then expect a tough full moon as the emotions could reach a high water mark.
There is one area on the full phase that is quite beneficial and that is a beautiful trine between the Moon in Virgo and Pluto in Capricorn. When Pluto has a positive aspect with another planet there is emphasis on power or empowerment. With a Moon Trine Pluto our survival instinct is high and if it means shedding or cutting our losses for the benefit of our future---and quess what? We're willing to do it. Watch your casual thoughts during this phase. See if your daydreams (Pisces) lead you to thoughts of new areas and growth (Pluto) that expand your world (Jupiter) and a whole new daily life (Virgo). Those Daydreams could be a road map to your future.
Hey Canada, did you just see that? Yeah, we won 6-1. The one goal being with fucking Tim Thomas in net. He's the king of letting in goals, especially shitty ones. Trust me on that, I'm a Bruins fan.
For the record, I want you guys to win. I want to to see USA / CA that way we can kick the shit out of you.
Mike Babcock said that, "Hockey was Canada's sport, well the worlds, but Canada considers is theres." Well guess what Babcock I respect you as a coach and a hockey figure, but if you have the priveledge to face team USA in the finals you will lose. You don't stand a chance, because your Canadian.
Yes I went there. And the funny thing is Mike Millbury has been criticized for using Eurotrash as an adjective to describe European hockey, but you know how we should describe Canadian hockey?
"A rep for Gatorade told CNBC, "I can confirm that we no longer see a role for Tiger in our marketing efforts and have ended our relationship."
The rep added, "However, our partnership with the Tiger Woods Foundation will continue. We wish Tiger all the best."
Gatorade is the third company to give Tiger the boot in the wake of his sex scandal -- Woods was already dropped by Gillette and Accenture."
Gatorade gives the ol' Tigre the boot. The thing about this that doesn't make sense is the fact that Gatorade waited 3 months to cut the ties with their largest celebrity endorser. They held strong through the beef of the scandal, but once Tiger comes clean to the public, they drop him? Doesn't add up. We all know Tiger is going to relapse in a few short months, and sweep the majors with a breeze. Sure he might be struggling keeping his D out of fresh P while on tour, but who really cares if he hits a few broads every here and there. Elin is Jonesing for Tigers 3 iron just as bad as Tiger is jonesing for Elin's cup, so I'm sure they'll find a way to make it work and Gatorade will be kicking their own ass for letting go of the World's greatest athlete. As the great lyricist Big Boi once said,
"Know what I'm talking about, jealousy, infidelity, envy
Cheating, beating, and to the G's they be the same thing
So who you placing the blame on, you keep on singing the same song
Let bygones be bygones, you can go on and get the hell on"
"CONCORD – Gov. John Lynch has declared a state emergency after high winds left more than one third of the state's residents and businesses without power.
In a conference call with reporters, Lynch said he also activated 50 members of the National Guard to assist communities respond to the damage.
State officials said about 330,000 residents and businesses are without power and people should expect to be without power for several days. The 330,000 power outages are second only to the December 2008 ice storm when 430,000 residents and businesses were without electricity.
Lynch and other state officials said 100 percent of many communities are without power and hundreds of state and local roads are closed due to downed trees or flooding."
Well mother nature just got real REAL on us huh? She's got to have some tits to drop a Haiti on us like this right? I mean it started off worse enough...Nearly midway through the 4th quarter of the Celtics/Cavs game, SHAZAM, off goes the TV! At that point the Cavs had stormed back(haha get it, pun) and made a game out of the whole affair. Less than ten minutes later, I'm sitting in my driveway, crushing beers in my car, listening to the game on the radio, when I hear the Celtics are trailing by 11. For fucks sake miss! Mother Nature really dyked out on this one. There's not better explanation for the Celtics getting outscored 35-14 in the 4th and falling by 20, than the result of thousands of people being pulled away from their black TV screens. It's obvious the storm sucked the life out of the crowd and shit it all over NH in the form of a hurricane. Looks like the only option I have now is to get blacked out in honor of the blackout. Cheers.
Just for the record, I had no part in the impressions/opinions of this video and hereby take no responsibility for this drunken individual. Hopefully I don't have a large Asian fan base that finds this to be discriminative, and if I do, submit some racist videos against this chick and you bet your ass they'll be bringing us into next weekend!
P.S. If you turn into a racist drunk, make sure you avoid China Town
As promised, here's my daily dose of Sam Adams. Make sure you're spreading the word on this kid telling your bro's and ho's bout his EP dropping next Friday, March 5th, on iTunes.
Kas, loppukiri on käynnissä! Sekalaista tuotantoa tältä viikolta, ensimmäisenä lisää kieputteluita yksinkertaisin muodoin. Taitaa nuo rondellit olla hieman hillokamaa, kun niitä on helmikuun aikana tunkenut mukaan yllättävän paljon.
Erittäin simppeli rannekoru isolla hopeapallerolla sekä vuorikristallikuutiolla. Tuo rengas on ollut juotettuna ties kuinka kauan, mutta nyt oli aika tarttua sen muhkuraiseen juotoskohtaan ja hioa lumput pois.
Harvinaista sinisen käyttöä! Kaulakorussa yksinkertainen helmihässäkkä, joka koostuu mm. kvartsista sekä Swarovskin helmestä.
Karneolit saivat hatukseen renkaista juotetut härpäkkeet, joissa pääsin taas heiluttamaan pallopääpunsseleita. Hopea näyttää taas tuossa kamalan kärsineeltä vaikka ovatkin livenä siloista pintaa.
Iso akaatti sai hatukseen lätkän, jossa lukee hey slow down. Akaatti riippuu pitkässä ketjussa.
Ja vielä nimilaatta tilauksesta kohosydämellä.
Neljä korua vielä olisi tehtävänä, pää lyö nyt tyhjää, mutta periksi ei anneta :D
Way back in April of 2009, the above picture surfaced of Tim Tebow and some unnamed girl made the blogosphere go buzz as people speculated that she might be Tebow's girlfriend. (My Florida sources tell me however that they were just good friends)
Well, the girl in the picture, Janell Wheeler has made name for herself as she made the top 24 on this season's American Idol.
Here is one of her earlier performances of Estelle's American Boy during Hollywood Week:
"Red Sox players and fans should feel right at home in the new spring training facility in Fort Myers, Fla., which is expected to open in 2012.
Preliminary architectural renderings of the state-of-the-art complex were unveiled Thursday, and it’s clear the design team had Fenway Park in mind. Some defining characteristics of the team’s 98-year-old home in Boston are included in the Florida facility, including a “Green Monster” in left field that has seating atop the wall and manual green scoreboard below; the same irregular field dimensions, with Fenway-like nooks and crannies; and bullpens located beyond the outfield wall. In addition, a Yawkey Way type of street positioned south of the ballpark on the complex grounds will create a concourse similar to Yawkey Way, where street venders and entertainers cater to fans.
The state-of-the-art training complex on the site -- including a main ballpark, six practice fields, and adjoining facilities for both Major and Minor League operations -- will be used year-round. Grass parking lots will double as public soccer fields when games aren’t being played.
“This is an incredibly exciting step in bringing ‘Fenway Park South’ to Southwest Florida,” said Jonathan Gilula, Red Sox executive vice president/business affairs.
The facility, which is pegged to cost around $75 million, had been scaled down recently due to increased construction costs. The original plan had 1,000 more seats in the main ballpark, another practice field, more luxury suites, and larger clubhouses."
Being a fan who has visited the Red Sox in Fort Myers for several years, this news is a Slam-Ma-Jamma! Fenways 100 year anniversary in 2012, count me in for Fort Myers!
I hate to jinx their game, but the Celtics, Rondo in particular, have started on absolute fiaaaaaarrrrrr!!! Let's GOOOOOOOO!! And Scal's spray tan is yet to be seen...man this night keeps getting better and better!
Wiz debuted this joint at Harpers Ferry in Boston a month or so back and has confirmed it will be on his EP, coming to iTunes next Friday MARCH 5th. I apologize for the rank quality, but it gives you a peek into what's yet to come from BostonsBoy. Make sure to sack up and buy this EP on iTunes next friday and support the kid and his work. Visit Sam Adams Wizzone for more info on The Kid.
It's been less than one month and I'm already getting heat from the DMCA! Man I knew we were gaining popularity but enough to catch the eye of these fish frying' fucks?!?! Here's a lesson for all you teeny boppin' bloggers: don't post leaked Young Jeezy you find on youtube cause it can get you in heaps of shit apparently. Hey, you learn something new everyday right? Today's lesson...Fresh2DeathDaily is a shark in a sea of nemo's, NBD.
TMZ: Tiger Woods made the first move in a scheme to release those propaganda-ish jogging photos days before his public apology, this according to the people behind the camera.
According to Jonathan Klein, CEO of Getty Images, Tiger's people approached him with the idea to shoot the photos.
Klein told CNBC, "We were approached and Tiger happened to know the photographer (Sam Greenwood) and has known him for a long time."
Klein also claims Getty has made "very little" money from the photo -- because they struck a deal with Tiger's camp to make it widely available to other wire agencies once they took it.

Why is Tiger doing this? It's simple, to keep Elin by his side. As long as they're trying to work things out he's getting laid. GUARANTEED. He's Tiger fucking Woods.
Lord knows as soon as he gets back on the links the break up will ensue because regardless of how many hours he spends at the rehab when the next hot slut calls his name he's banging her just as hard as the drives he hits.
Just to prove I wasn't always a bitter and twisted middle-aged cynic, this is a photo of me in the 'good old days'. That is my red-headed terror of a little brother Danny, on my left. It was taken at what was then, about 1968, the premises for the Albany Light Opera Company, which is now Dylans on the Terrace in Albany. I will check that but regardless, it was one of those double-storied shop-fronted businesses along that strip.
I always remember my childhood as being quite miserable because of the lack of domestic bliss in the home. I know my father did his best but just wasn't father or (according to my mother) husband material. This photo was taken when the family unit was still together, before the move to Perth and the big split in 1969, when I was separated from my mother, my brother and (to my relief at the time) my father.
As a consequence of ageing though, I have started to remember that there were some good times scattered in amongst the stress, misery and nightmares. Despite the legacy of dysfunction that the family dynamics left me with, I have realised there is much to be grateful for.
My parents were both creative people. We joined the Albany Light Opera Company as a family where my mother directed, painted sets, made props, costumes, acted and sang. My father also did some stage time (cast as the bad-arse characters which I think may have been down to my mother) There was an upright piano where I would plonk out one-fingered melodies of the songs I heard being rehearsed. I still know the lyrics to many songs from the Gilbert and Sullivan productions ALOC performed.
When we were getting in the way and told to amuse ouselves, 'us kids' would go upstairs where costumes were stored in huge cardboard boxes and haul stuff out to dress up in. We had a ball (I think my brother still has a penchant for the occasional cross-dressing session - I have seen a photo of him as an adult in a slinky red pencil skirt and red lippie) We spent many weekends there, often late into the night in which case we would be put to bed in our Holden station wagon that was parked in the lane-way alongside the ALOC premises.
One of my fondest memories is a surreal vision of my father lying in the glow of our home fireplace while my mother carefully applied plaster to his glad-wrapped chest. It was the closest thing to domestic bliss we ever got to. She was making breast-plate armour for a production. I have seen photos of him dressed as a Roman soldier wielding a sword and he looked quite impressive. To this day I still work with plaster as a sculptural medium.
The creative environment kept the marriage bearable for a while, at least until my mother could execute her escape. It was a relief to move to a more stable family environment with my maternal grandmother, grandfather and aunty who was only a year older than me. Unfortunately I had to leave behind the creative jungle for a life in the cultural suburban desert of Rockingham - until I could execute my own escape.
Caller: “Yes. I’m over at the truck stop and there’s a girl here selling perfume. But she’s going around to all the truckers and flashing them. I think she’s selling more than perfume.”
Me: “Alright sir, I can dispatch an officer. Can you describe the girl to me?”
Caller: “Oh, about a B cup. Not too bad but nothing you would want to go home and brag to mom about.”
Me: “Er…what about her hair color and skin color?”
Caller: “Oh…I guess your question makes more sense now."
The above video is the original Tiger Woods voicemail to mistress Jamie Grubbs and below is Ludacris new song with an intro parodying the Tiger Woods voicemail.
Introducing Jana Kramer, a 26-year old actress who has bounced all over the big screen. I first caught sight of her fine honey smacks when she made her Entourage debut, as "the UCLA girl". Turtle's fat ass somehow had an array(two) of women to chose from back in season 5, one of which was Miss Kramer. Although his heart was caught up in Jamie (Lynn Sigler), this fine UCLA piece of pie was offering herself up on a silver platter. Turtle ends up dabbling, but remains with his true sweetie, Jamie. No disrespect to Jamie, but Jana is a diamond in the ruff. Second to Sloan of course and probably in my all time top 5 Entourage dips.
Jana has also starred on One Tree Hill, 90210, and Friday Night Lights, but who really cares about her career life when you can be completely content looking at her pictures...

Maailmassa on yksinkertaisesti niin paljon mahtavaa musiikkia, että jos alkaisin linkittämään kaikkia lempibiisejäni niin postaukset eivät varmaan koostuisi mistään muusta kuin niistä. :D Siispä olenkin päättänyt laittaa näihin musapostauksiin vain yhden ainokaisen videon aina yhdeltä lempibändiltäni. Mukaan pääsee tosi valikoitu joukko, koska on olemassa monia bändejä joilta kuuntelen vain muutamaa mahtavaa biisiä, mutta ne eivät nyt pääse mukaan. Olenkin ajatellut että voisin laittaa yhden niistä mahtavista biiseistä aina postauksen loppuun, nykyisen "now playing" kohdan tilalle. Tällaisia musapostauksia on tullut varmaan aika monelta bloggarilta, mutta koska ei yli kahden vuoden bloggauksen aikana minulta, ajattelin että nyt olisi korkea aika tehdä tällainen. Profiilistani löytyy myös lista bändeistä joita kuuntelen. Huomiona myös se, että valitsin mukaan vain sellaisia biisejä joista on musiikkivideo, ettei menisi ihan tylsäksi. :) Jos nyt kukaan jaksaa kuunnella edes yhtä biisiä.. :--D Pahoittelut kun en löytänyt kaikkia videoita kovin hyvälaatuisina.
Aloitan loogisesti lempibändistäni, eli My Chemical Romancesta, josta myös kerron enemmän. MCR:ää aloin kuuntelemaan kunnolla vuoden 2008 alkupuolella, eli olin silloin ysillä, ja tästä syystä missasin MCR:n Suomen keikan kesällä 2007. Harmittaa erittäin pahasti että koin valaistuksen "liian myöhään"! Tässä välissä voisinkin mainita, että nykyinen musamakuni alkoi muutenkin muotoutumaan ysiluokalla rokimpaan suuntaan ja nykyiselleen, eikä paluuta ole ollut. Taisin vasta silloin muutenkin tajuta miten tärkeää musiikki minulle on, ja kuuntelenkin sitä aina kun mahdollista. Kuuntelin satunnaisesti MCR:ää jo ennen kunnollista tehokuuntelua, ja ensimmäistä kertaa kuulin I'm Not Okay:n jo jossain kuudennella luokalla, kun ystäväni Vilu näytti sen videon. En silloin vielä innostunut bändistä, mutta nyt olisi vaikea kuvitella elämääni ilman sitä. MCR:ltä on kolme levyä: I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love (2002), Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge (2004), ja The Black Parade (2006). Uutta levyä olen odottanut kuin kuuta nousevaa, ja sen pitäisikin ilmestyä tänä keväänä! On erittäin todennäköistä että saan silloin vähintäänkin sydärin. P.S. Ja minähän en ole yhtään fanityttö toista kitaristia eli Frank Ieroa ja laulaja Gerard Waytä kohtaan, ehen... Jos ette tiedä kumpi kitaristeista on Frank, saatte arvata. :---D Niin ja tuo on paras video ikinä! ♥
Seuraavana vuorossa video bändiltä nimeltä The Used, joka on lempparini MCR:n jälkeen. :P Yksinkertaisesti sanottuna aivan ihanaa (ja angstista) musaa. Pahoittelut etten löytänyt parempilaatuista videota.
Monista muista kuuntelemistani bändeistä eroaa aika paljon Mindless Self Indulgence eli MSI. Kuvailisin tätä sienimusaksi.
Placebo ei aluksi edes niin kovaa kolahtanut, mutta kun kuuntelin sitä enemmän se vain yksinkertaisesti osui ja upposi. Ihanaa koomausmusaa.
Kuuntelen tosi vähän suomalaista musiikkia, mutta HIM on yksi poikkeuksista. Olin HIMin keikallakin Nosturissa joulukuussa -08. Minulla on vieläkin tallessa bändin jonkun jäsenen vesipullo. =D
Seuraavana vuorossa Good Charlotte, jonka video on nyt jonkun ihme metacafe:n kautta, koska YouTube on kökkö eikä sieltä löydy nykyään monia hyviä videoita.
Simple Plan.. Muuta en osaa sanoa kuin että hyvä bändi kyseessä. :D
Tässä oli nyt ensimmäiset seitsemän monista mahtavista bändeistä, ja itse asiassa juuri näitä seitsemää olen Last.fm:n mukaan kuunnellutkin eniten.
